THE FINANCIAL OUTLOOK.

Chaunc.Y II. Dspsw Tells what he Thinks
OF The OounirS's Future Prosperity.
CLEVELAND, OHIo, Oct. IA The Van
derbilt inspection party reaching CleVe-
land this evening and few minutes later
continued on its homeward j0urrey 10
New York. In speaking OF their trip
Ghauncey M. Depew said: "The Wander
biIt system is in better physical condition
than any road in Europe, and as good as any
road need be. 1t has little more to do in
the future than the maintenance of its
way" Mr.. DepeW's attention was called
TO the St. Louis interview in which some
important predictions OF the coming
financial disaster were imputed to him
He was quoted as saying the shadow OF
financial disaster was already upon
most every business enterprise, and that
the over-construction Of raiiroa ds and the
lard speculation craze were the chic
elements that would inaugurate this i'm
pending peril. 1.-THE young man
who interviewed me At ST
Louis to'auy fsied ID catch
the gist of my remarks" said Depew.
"He asked me about the effects of the
land speculation and of the great railroad
construction in the west. l think there
are not two opinions in this country about
the eviieffects of the land speculation s.
fabulous prices, aud 1 told MIN
thought the railroad construction
in fsesnorthwest this season was some
kwlfss ahead of the country's demands
But there is no more danger of panic
than there is of sn earthquake In thls
depot. The earnings of the railroads
which are, think, as correct criterion
of the prosperity as exists, are on tas
Vanderbilt system good, and from
what I can see and learn they ar,
equally good on most OF the railroads
OF the country. Business is at presen
established on the best foundations ant
can see no contingencies that may arise
10 shake it. The industrial establish
ments are thriving this year as never be
fore. Commercial Transactions are stron.
and the business interests of the coun.r,
are in healthy condition.
BUSINESS Is PHENOMENAL AND HEALTHY
